Fighting for identity is something that is very much in my life.

Having an identity is one thing. Being born into an identity is quite a different matter.

Identity has been such an explosive territory for me... so hard, so painful at times.

Carving out an identity for yourself is important so I'm trying to do that as well.

The perception of identity is so intimately bound up with the perception of the human form.

There's no such thing as identity: it's something we have to believe in to make life more tolerable.

The value of identity of course is that so often with it comes purpose.

Who are we? Whom do we want to become? How do we perceive ourselves? How do we want to be perceived? These questions of identity are often at the core of our own internal struggles. Resolve them, and you are closer to being free.

We're a nation in search of an identity, but it's quite exciting. I don't regard it as a problem. It's a challenge.

The idea is that in any situation, people have a notion as to who they are and how they should behave. And if you don't behave according to your identity, you pay a cost.
